I believe the Mayan Calendar stopped at 2012 just because of the fact that they had no more room to put the rest of the years.
Or maybe.........the calendar maker died? The whole civilization died off abruptly or moved, from what I read...so maybe the calendar was just unfinished

The end of the Mayan calendar on December 21, 2012, marked the end of a 5,126-year cycle in their Long Count calendar. Some interpreted this as a doomsday prediction, but Mayan scholars assert it simply signified the end of one cycle and the beginning of a new one.

∙ 14y agoThe Mayans used their Calendar to predict astronomical phenomena such as the phases and eclipses of the moon and the orbit of Venus. They also predicted the seasons. They had worked out the mathematics for the calendar about 700 years into the future until December 21, 2012, when their culture was overthrown in a war. When their mathematicians were killed, work on the calendar ended.
